Mary Immaculate College breezed past Maynooth and into the Fitzgibbon quarter finals this afternoon by beating their opponents 1-22 to 0-12.

That made it two wins from their two games for Jamie Wallโ€™s side. Led by the impressive Colin Guilfoyle, Mary I led by 1-13 to 0-6 at half time.

Guilfoyle bagged 1-2 for himself in the space of three minutes and after that scoring blitz there was no way back for Maynooth.

Aaron Gillane also helped himself to 0-6, while Colin Oโ€™Brien, Michael Oโ€™Loughlin and Thomas Monaghan also impressed for Mary I.
